The Electronic Intifada Photostory,
The Electronic Intifada, 5 January 2010
Approximately one year ago, Israel unleashed its assault on the Gaza Strip -- amidst its ongoing siege and occupation -- killing more than 1,400 Palestinians, the majority of them civilians. Thirteen Israelis were killed during the attacks, most of them soldiers. Israel has since been accused of war crimes by numerous international human rights organizations as well as in a UN-commissioned inquiry led by South African Judge Richard Goldstone. The attacks sparked mass demonstrations around the world in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Solidarity actions have continued, and a number of groups have attempted to travel to Gaza and break the siege. The below images are from around the one year anniversary, when many groups around the world again led demonstrations to show their continued solidarity with Palestine. If you have images to which you hold the rights documenting Palestine, Palestinian life, politics and culture, or of solidarity with Palestine, please email images and captions to photos A T electronicintifada D O T net.
